We believe that the board of education

Besides Mr. Taylor. of the western build

Mr.. Davidson is a gentleman of
good teaching ideas. of ample ex-
perience, and of very superior edu-
cation. He is also a man of much ability.
Being a man of intelligence and good char
acter, we presume that he is republican.
but we do not know. Certainly his politics
wouldn't hurt him any as a superintendent.
Then there is Mr.. Cotes, a good, strong.
experienced, prudent man, well up in mod

best man in the lot, irrespective of his poll
ties. but let there be thorough eXamina-
ton of the qualifications of the candidate
before he is chosen. We want no half-edu-
Gated men: neither do We want a protes-
sional politician of any class.

That Editor AgaIn.
re the Editor of the Republic:

1" the Editor of the Republic:
The editor of the Champion City Times
attempts to wiggle out of his democratic
skin. in the Sunday issue of that paper. by
claiming that he always has and always
intends to vote the republican ticket. Now,
this ali sounds very well, but this editor
east his first vote only last fail and at that
time was wearing the collar OF his boss.
But less than year ago. while discussing
the lockout at the East street shops. this
same editor denounced the act As an out
rage and while discussing the probable eff
feet on our city election. last spring, he
expressed himself as being thoroughly
satisfied with any disaster that might over
come the republicans in consequence of the
labor trouble, as he was dem
o rat. This statement was made
at different times and in dit
fJrent plac, ; and if he is a rep blican
now it may be presumed that il is from
force Of circumstances and not from
choice.
The new police bill is demo-
cratic scheme. backed up by a
few such thin-skinned republicans as this
editor, and they have succeeded in gaining
for il the support of some good republicans
who We're not aware of the origin and pur-
pose of the trick. IL this editor is repub-
llcan now his conversion is of such recent
date that he should be more modest in his
wild desire to read lifelong republicans out
of the party. SrArwARr.

from the same mugwump sheets that de-
spise all soldiers and aided in bounding

extracts may be inferred from the fact that
most Of them designate as Mr." ]. Warren

erce or patronage, rose from major of an

merit as a soldier was 81 conspicuous to
